Mitigation

The Banwell bypass - as approved by the Planning & Regulatory Committee in March 2023 - includes features that will reduce the identified impacts of the scheme.

The mitigations look to

  • protect the local environment, biodiversity and wildlife
  • reducing noise and visual impacts in various locations.
  • reinstate community land at Banwell Football Club
  • protect local orchards.
  • reduce the impact of any increased traffic and its speed in the nearby villages of Sandford, Winscombe and Churchill

You can find maps showing mitigation measures in Sandford, Churchill and Winscombe via our Planning Portal.
